By “trade war” do you mean “we stopped agreeing to buy their cars and to let them buy our soybeans without a lot of additional tarriffs, thereby forcing both us and them to be more independent”? Did we ravage China by stopping buying their products? Would it have been less interventionist to continue to exploit their cheap labor?
You mean the country that the US started a trade war with?

Lol that’s your example? You know that every single country in the world has trade agreements and ‘wars’ with eachother, right?
Do you seriously think only China and the US have trade deals?
